What is this? Some fruits or vegetables from South Africa did not have the right date labels when they came into Germany.
What's happening? These foods arrived without proper date marks or with wrong dates. This is a labeling mistake, not a safety risk.
Does this affect me? Only if you bought these fruits or vegetables recently. Most likely, stores have already fixed the issue.
What should I do? If you are worried, ask your pharmacist or doctor. Otherwise, just check the dates on your food as usual.
